Turn on, if off.

Printer is offline.

Check ON LINE indicator.

Put online if offline.

Cable disconnected.

Check connections.

Re-connect cable if not
connected or loose.

Incorrect printer set-up.

Check the printer set-up
parameters. If it is a serial
printer, it should be set for 8
data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit.
The baud rate should match
the site controller's baud rate,
9600. For Okidata printer,
follow instructions in Start-Up
Manual.

Configure the proper set-up
parameters according to the
printer manufacturer's
instructions.

paper.

If short haul modems are
being used, check both
modems at site and printer.

If off, turn on; if offline, put
online; if disconnected,

Defective site controller board
set.

Try using a different site
controller communications
port. This requires changing
the port configuration in
SYS_PAR. Make sure the
printer is connected to the new
port before you reboot the site.

Replace the site controller
board set if port or ports do not
work.

Defective printer.

Most printers have a self test
(ex: turn off, press and hold
Line Feed button while you
turn power on).

If the printer doesn't work in
self test, replace the printer.
